Cancel a queued job

POST/jobs/{jobId}/cancel

Transitions a QUEUED job to CANCELLED. Returns the updated job envelope. Cancelling any other status returns 409 not_cancellable — workers do not poll for cancellation mid-run in v1.

Authorization

  • Authorizationstringrequired

    Bearer token in the Authorization header.

    Pass Authorization: Bearer scripe_sk_live_<...> (or scripe_sk_test_<...> for test keys) on every request. Keys are scoped to a single workspace and can be revoked from the Scripe dashboard.

    The same header also accepts an OAuth 2.1 access token (scripe_oat_*); both credentials share one scope vocabulary and every operation below documents the scope it requires. An API key can hold every scope named on this surface except webhooks:manage, which is grantable to OAuth tokens only today — the webhook-endpoint operations answer 403 scope_missing to every API key. Operations that name no scope accept any valid token of the workspace.

Path parameters

  • jobIdstringrequired

Header parameters

  • Scripe-Api-Versionstring

    Pin the API version. Format YYYY-MM-DD. Omit to receive the currently rolling default. Unknown versions return 400 version_unsupported.
